Free Music Notes for Edda - An Icelandic Saga - Myths From Medieval Iceland / Sequentia
Free Music Review: Sings to my DNA
Hit: 5 Stars
While it's not unusual for me to have several different recordings of the same work by different performers, this is the only case in which I have two identical CDs, one for home and one for the car. I have to assume my Scots-Irish ancestry has some Nordic blood, as this music affects me powerfully. I haven't even read the program notes, so it can't be that the text's mesmerizing. This may not be everyone's cup of tea, but if mead is your drink, it's perfect.Free Music Review: satisified customer

I was looking for the early sounds of Iceland. My mother's family goes back to Ingolfur Arnarson the first settler of Iceland whose farm site later rose as the capital city, Reykjavik. His father Orn farmed in Norway so I figured the sounds he brought with him would be Nordic in origin. I was delighted to find this rendition of what Ingolfur and later settlers might be enjoying as music of their day.Free Music Review: A Treasure

'Edda' explores a stark world. That said, 'The Prophecy of the Seeress' becomes a tour de force of unremitting intensity. If you want to revel in a duet that is emtionally harrowing and technically astonishing, the close of the 'Prophecy' should do it for you. I take 'Edda' to be a spectacular example of master musicians having a great time, and recommend it heartily.Free Music Review: Spinetingling--Worf would have loved it

The mixture of sung and spoken (almost whispered) words, the deliberate clash of two voices as they sing in union and then one drops a note, is exciting! Well executed, cleanly recorded, every note is crystal clear. Listening to it gave me goosebumps. I highly recommend it.Free Music Review: Great Norse Pagan Folk music

This is a great Asatru CD. The music sounds more like Blue Grass, but who knows what Viking music would sound like?A most have for any Odinist household. Wyatt Kaldenberg
